You will be a valued member of our hostel team and be given guidance and training to carry out all the duties you will be involved with. We have strong team ethics and will always ensure that you will be given a full introduction to your volunteer role.

We Should Probably Get Doors Like This…

They're probably not very practical, and we can only imagine that it wouldn't take too long before someone thought they were 'push' doors and walk right through them… but there is no denying that they look pretty cool.

Igloo Pods Leftovers!!!

Today was a good day to be staying in the new Igloo Pods building... check out the sweet leftovers that someone left behind!!

Is it butter? Is it not butter? And is that drink made with real cherries?!

I guess the only way to find out is to book a room in the Pods and see for yourself :)

In Other News… Check Out Our New Building!!!

We've been so busy around here that we almost forgot to post some pictures from the brand new Igloo Pods building that we opened. Well, let's fix that right now.

It's inspired by lots of travelling, fellow explorers, and a passion for value. Using mainly up-cycled and second-hand furniture (with added touches of top notch comfort features and personality), as well independent Nottingham traders and locally sourced products wherever possible, including murals in the rooms & building spray painted by talented local graffiti artist Smallkid … we are passionate to show how a hostel should truly look and feel these days.

And you can book a room in the new Pods building over on our Booking Button (50p from each booking made directly with us goes to charity)!
